The one time I had it there was nasty shrieking, intermittently, when you put the clutch in. This was on a Camaro. The bearing isn't moving when the clutch is out. (But could be off-center, in the proposed scenario.) Me? I'd be looking elsewhere first. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
